Good tempo with several going forward, primarily Simple Simple, Khethiwe's Destiny and Red Roses Too. CAPTAIN'S CHRISTY (6) fought on when fourth against over 1000m at Scottsville last time out. She finished 1.75 lengths behind the second pick in her penultimate run. She is 3kgs better off at the weights today, and that should be enough for the tables to be turned. Hard to beat. CONVOCATION (4) beat the top pick in a game race last time out over this distance. She is in a good space and merits healthy respect. KHETHIWE'S DESTINY (5) returns from an 11-week break, which would have done her the world of good. She is unbeaten from two starts over this distance and is likely to race on the speed. If not in need of the run, she may be hard to peg back. BEVIES DELIGHT (2) stayed on when third over 1400m at Scottsville and is her trainer's only runner for the day. Each way value.
